SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:UMBS Summer Lecture Series: Bennett Lecture in Plant & Fungal Ecology
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Knute Nadelhoffer (University of Michigan Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Professor Emeritus) will present this year's Bennett Endowed Lecture in Plant & Fungal Ecology: Biological Controls on Forest Soil Organic Matter Accumulation:\nLessons from the DIRT Collaboration.\n\nGlobally\, soils store more than twice as much carbon in organic forms as exists in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO2). Because plant-soil systems\, such as northern forests\, exchange carbon with the atmosphere\, small percentage changes in carbon contents of extensive ecosystems such as temperate forests can lead to significant changes in atmospheric CO2¬¬\, a powerful heat-trapping gas that affects global temperatures.  In addition to serving as a global carbon reservoir\, soil organic matter (SOM) is a critical ecosystem component that affects soil physical\, chemical\, and biological properties. SOM serves to increase soil water retention\, to store\, recycle\, and release nutrients for forest tree growth\, and to protect stream and groundwater quality. Importantly\, SOM enhances environmental conditions leading to high levels of biodiversity consisting of complex microbial and faunal communities that serve to maintain ecosystem and human health. \n\nThis talk will present results from a network of long-term experiments\, referred to as “DIRT” (Detrital Input and Removal Treatments\, including a 15-year experiment at the UM Biological Station)\, which is focused on understanding how forest leaf and root litter function to control SOM accumulations in forest soils.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Explore Wycliffe Live: How To Serve In Bible Translation From Home: Working Remotely
DESCRIPTION:Serving in missions doesn’t necessarily mean a move overseas. You can be a missionary serving in the global Bible translation movement\, and live where you are now!\n\nLong before COVID-19 disrupted our way of working\, Wycliffe Bible Translators discovered that remote workers bring unique perspectives to Bible translation\, including enabling people to find creative ways to reach remote countries and communities. Today we have a wide range of opportunities available for remote work including recruiting\, HR\, IT\, administration\, management\, missionary care\, finance\,marketing and communications and more.\n\nDiscover how you can find your fit in Bible translation by listening to our panel of remote workers. They’ll share tips from their years of experience thriving in remote work situations.\n\nWhen: Tuesday\, August 10 at 8 p.m. ET\nWhere: From whereveryou are! (Join from PC\, Mac\, Linux\, iOS or Android.)\n\nExplore Wycliffe Live is a free\, one-hour online event designed for you to hear from Wycliffe missionaries serving around the world. You’ll get to hear about avariety of topics ranging from Bible translation to internship opportunities to trauma healing and so much more! We hope you’ll join the conversation!\n\n(Note: You can view previously recorded events at our Explore Wycliffe Live homepage: https://sites.google.com/wycliffe.org/ewl/home.)
